self control

I cleaned my room the other day
In some kind of desperate attempt
To possibly maintain
A semblance of humanity
I thought I could save some face
But they say first impression are the key
So maybe it's too late
And hey I didn't get to see you anyway

So much effort for so little result
When I'm around you I lose my self control
Give me attention and I'll tell you all my secrets
And sing you songs 'bout how I'm going off the deep end

Hey it's better than the last time
At least I made progress
At least I've written songs and shit
Is what I tell myself
If you're the last guy I ever date
Well I couldn't care less
To find another like you
Well I'd be hard pressed

When I was a kid I didn't think I'd end up like this
The same as everybody else
A needy piece of shit
I'm a mess
Actually I'm doing fine
I don't wanna be alone
But life gets better when you're gone
Say we can't meet for a week
And I can concentrate again
Or maybe I get more productive
The lonlier I am

How much I like you, I wonder if you'll ever know
When I'm around you I lose my self control
Am I too young or are you the one who's old
Should I get complacent or just do as I'm told

Am I missing something or are we both in the dark
I can't stand these little habits of the heart
I don't wanna be a creep but I don't wanna come off cold
When you're around I lose my self control
